Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How much a tip plasty would cost?
Tipplasty
Nov 13, 2018
Each Board Certified Plastic  Surgeon  has there own fee scale typically they start at 5k and can go up to as high as 8k
I received a high PTT level, what should I expect going forward?
PTT
Oct 10, 2018
I would not move forward and no Board Certified Plastic Surgeon should allow you to move forward with elective surgery being that a high ptt result means there is issues with your blood clotting.
Does the cost of rhinoplasty go down if you have insurance?
Insurance & Rhinoplasty
Oct 1, 2018
Report
 Insurance might cover facial plastic surgery that is necessary to improve structure of your nose, rather than elective surgery. I suggest that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon and your insurance company to determine if you are eligible.Thanks For the Question and Best of LuckDr Joseph Pober
Could I have affected the bone healing by tightening the muscle in my nose?
Nasal Tightening
Oct 1, 2018
Dear Sierra, I would not be worried that you caused any harm with your healing process. I would speak with your surgeon during your splint removal and address any  concerns you may have!Best Wishes,Dr Joseph Pober
I'm ready to do a rhinoplasty, is it possible for me to achieve these results?
Rhinoplasty
Oct 1, 2018
Well thank you for the question as well as the pictures, although I don't like to commit to a set picture or outcome a good Board Certified Plastic Surgeon will get you as close to this look as possible. 
Is it better to have the rhinoplasty or the lip lift done first?
Lip Lift as well as Rhinoplasty
Oct 1, 2018
Most Doctors do these procedures together quiet frequently , it minimizes downtime  it is more cost effective as well to the patient! If you must do them separately I would suggest to do your rhinoplasty first then wait 6 months to a year to to do your lip lift. Always make sure you seek out a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
Do I need a revision or should I wait until 1 year?
Indentation 3 months Post -OP
Oct 1, 2018
You are not fully healed for up until a year after Rhinoplasty, what I would do is reach out to your surgeon to inquire about inserting some fillers into the indentation to smooth it out.Again make sure you always consult a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon!Best Wishes,Dr. Joseph Pober
Can my nostrils be corrected and/or reshaped after disastrous alarplasty?
Alarplasty
Oct 1, 2018
My suggestion is to seek out multiple Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, I would have them all take a look at your nose and see who comes up with the best treatment plan for you. Also be mindful to look at all before and after pictures as well as stay in tune with the reviews of the Drs you seek out!Dr Joseph M Pober
Is it safe to get Rhinoplasty and fat injections to the cheek during the same surgery?
Combined Procedures
Oct 1, 2018
Yes, you should not have any problems combining those  two procedures  at the same time. In addition it will also make more sense financially to join the two procedures, you can also save recovery time by doing them both at once. Please make sure you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon before making any decisions so that way you can come up with a customized treatment plan! Good Luck
My nose seems to be too wide for my face. Will weightloss make my nose to be smaller or will
Weight Loss and Nose
Oct 1, 2018
Weight loss will have no affect on the structure of your nose . Whether you lose or gain weight, it will not change the size of your nose. To reduce the size of your nose, I would recommend to have Rhinoplasty surgery. I recommend consulting a board certified rhinoplasty surgeon and discussing your goals and options in person.
Is rhinoplasty or non-surgical fillers better for my bulbous nose?
Fillers
Oct 1, 2018
I feel like fillers is not a good option. Being fillers make your nose bigger.I would suggest a Rhinoplasty with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. I would seek a consultation to have all your questions answered and start a custom treatment plan for your case.
How Much Does Ultherapy Cost?
Ultherapy
Oct 1, 2018
The price of Ultherapy isn't so small. Treating a full face and neck in New York City averages from $4,000 to around $5,500. In some parts of the country, the price is closer to $2,500. Treating a smaller region, like the brow, will cost you $750 to $1,000, depending on where you live
Would fuller lips help my nose?
Lips to Nose
Oct 1, 2018
Dear Kristen:Thank you for this question. As a professional I have to tell you that I don't find your nose to be a problem and you have beautiful full lips to begin with. If you are not confident and would like to enhance your look I suggest you make sure you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to weigh out your options. I don't see any immediate problems or facial distracts as said below.
Is There an over the Counter Med I Can Take to Help Reduce Swelling After Filler Injections?
Swelling
Sep 27, 2018
I normally suggest to my patients to use ice compressions and an oral antihistamine such as Benadryl for the first day or two but, always follow up with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for any concerns
Is it normal for swelling to cause the tip to be rotated up during initial stages of recovery
Upturned tip
Sep 26, 2018
Brittany,
Thank you for your question.
 You are very early in the recovery process.Please trust the process It can take up to a year for the nose to fully heal.  I recommend seeing your board certified plastic surgeon for follow ups so that you can have peace of mind during your recovery process.
